You do realise that a rectangle that has all sides the same length is in fact... a square, right? It's not semantics, it's a fact. I think you meant to say polygon. Even so, no poligon transforms itself in a triangle just by having all sides equal in length.

No, they meant what they said. A rectangle must have 4 right corners and two sets of parallel sides. A square is 4 right corners with 4 equal sides. In other words it is 4 right corners with two sets of parallel sides. All squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares.

#56, I don't understand what you are getting at. I don't think you read what a wrote carefully; I wasn't talking about triangles at all. It is a matter of semantics because you could say "square" or "rectangle with 4 sides of equal length" and it would be the exact SAME thing, just a different way to say it. You could even call a square a rectangle since a square IS a rectangle. Square is a more descriptive word, just like you could call a "battery-operated toothbrush" an "electric toothbrush" but "battery-operated toothbrush" is more specific.

Sure you understand, editing your comment and replacing 'triangle' with 'square' and playing it 'cool' now doesn't really help. #57: no, they didn't. She just edited the reply after...

You do realize that FML only gives you a limited time to edit your comments, right? Your comment was over 2 hours after mine, so there is no way I could have gone back and edited it. It's totally understandable to misread a comment and think you saw triangle when it wasn't there, but don't go and blame me for it. I guarantee you I did not say triangle. In fact, I did not even edit my comment.

"#57: no, they didn't. She just edited the reply after..." Nice try covering your mistake but, since they posted at 10:28 a.m. and you posted at 12:51 p.m., I know they didn't edit. They would have been well outside the whopping 2 minutes you get to edit a post on this site. You messed up, the classy thing would be to just admit that.

I don't have the energy for this. Ok, my mistake. Didn't realise until now how similar 'traingle' and 'square' really are.

How does one deserve something because of their family being some way? Did I miss humans learning some method that would allow a baby to pick which womb it's born from and to what family? You can't deserve something based on the behavior of anyone other than yourself. What you said follows the same logic that throwing a ten year old in jail because their father is a serial killer would. The only reason the OP would deserve this is if they were involved in the discussion and are pouting in their bedroom like the rest of the family.
